RTF List Fields Displaying Wingding Clock as Bullet

Post by penny »

Hello,
I am using the RTF Control in Silverlight to render RTF. The Raw RTF is uploaded as attachment bullet_issue.rtf and the rendering is uploaded as attachment bullet_issue.png. Any help is appreciated on this issue.

Hello.

How did you create this file?
Please, try to create it with WordPad, because Word make it too large and writes in the rtf-file much unnecessary information.

Thank you.

Hi,
I created this file using Rad RichTextBox control. I have just gone and viewed this file in WordPad and the same issue appears in WordPad also.

It seems that the Rad RichTextBox control creates wrong rtf file if you have the same issue in WordPad.
We use standard .Net Framework method for working with Rich Text.

Thank you.

Hi, I'm curious, I thought that the Silverlight version of stimulsoft couldn't display rich text format and you have to use HTML tags instead?

Has there been some change to support RTF in the silverlight version of the report control?

Thanks

Hello,

Unfortunately, due to limitations of silverlight the rich text component is not supporting in SL version.

Thank you.

Thanks Aleksey

But the original poster said they used the RTF control in Silverlight to render RTF? How could they do this if you say the rich text component is not supported in SL?

Hello,

The standard RichTextBox component is Silverlight works in a completely different format, it stores all text in the xaml format and this text can not be used in any other products, because it is not rtf text.

Thank you.
